[2021] 505 Acquires Infinity+2 & Gems of War (Read about what this means for you)

Ahoy, adventurers!I have some news for you all, so please read on!

Infinity+2 (and therefore Gems of War) has been acquired by 505 Games. Now, I’m sure you all have a lot of questions, so I’ll try to answer as many as possible here and provide some further information.

What does this mean for Gems of War?

• Not much, really!

• No seriously, not much. While 505 now owns Infinity+2 and Gems of War, we are a subsidiary of them, and Steve is still our creative director. We will continue working on Gems of War as we have in the past.

• However, with the backing of a large company, we may get the chance to improve Gems of War in ways that we couldn’t before. Woohoo!

What does this mean for infinity+2?

• Not much, really!

• No seriously, not much aside from more stability and the possibility of further growth.

So why am I telling you?

• Because I think it is the right thing to do!

• As of today this has become public knowledge and I know you are all ridiculously good at ferreting out information. Instead of finding out through the grapevine, I wanted to be as transparent as possible first.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I hope you all have a lovely day.

@awryan it means I’m an employee of them too!

@mitamata thanks!

Not too shabby at all! However, please keep in mind the following points…

• These numbers often don’t include taxes, tariffs, etc.
• We don’t see all of that gross money, or net money.

It’s best to take these sorts of numbers with a grain of salt. <3

@XLS78, yes, there has always been a revenue split. Also, the revenue for Infinity+2 isn’t solely from Gems of War.

@VegaDark541 this is highly unlikely. We will be handling all the current development aspects of Gems of War, and may even grab some more in future. I doubt Pipeworks will be involved again.

Honestly the fact that Game of Thrones was such an integral part in the cultural zeitgeist for so long and has now completely disappeared after an abysmal ending is both social phenomenon and horrible tragedy.
